Now that they have finally made the finals NINE years after being gifted McDavid these people are finally maybe gonna get what they've been predicting for a decade and a half now.

Sportsnet posted an article the other day and the headline was something like "How the Oilers built their Stanley Cup team", like they're some kind of brilliantly managed franchise who made a bunch of shrewd moves. When really, all they did was suck for so damn long that they were eventually gifted two generational talents due to pure luck and a fluke lottery win.
That garbage team wouldn't be anywhere near the finals if not for McLotteryball and Pissy carrying all the weight. Despite where they ended up in this year's playoffs, they're still just a two-man team that who fluked out with the easiest path to the Cup finals in decades.
